Hi,
The getaddrinfo module in GnuLib will often result in broken application
behavior because it is really a simple replacement which fail to handle
very common getaddrinfo usage pattern.
A common example of why it might fail is:
if (hints && (hints->ai_flags & ~AI_CANONNAME))
/* FIXME: Support more flags. */
return EAI_BADFLAGS;
This is not right since it tend to break application that trust the
GnuLib module to provide a viable getaddrinfo replacement.
What is people opinion concerning an eventual drop of the current module
to replace it by the GLIBC implementation ?
Regards,
